Small Scale Military Headquarters

has there been anymore developments with this new company?? there website hasnt added anything yet. i was wondering when the official launch was for their products.

weve been told late march

march. is it me, or IS EVERYONE ANXIOUS TO GET 1/18 BACK AGAIN!!!

Interesting development. Now if only someone would use 21sts 1:32 molds.

I'm down for some figures if they improve the skin tone.

i need some troops as well. man, i hope they make some red devils.

Been away from SSHQ the past couple weeks. Lots going on. Not just All-Go Toys.

Though on that subject I thought I would speak for just a moment. I have been on a couple conference calls this week and traded some emails. Production on Passion Wagon is now fully underway. The Box art is all resolved and final production markings are being approved. So far so good.

Other things going on. All in early stages so still too soon for details. All I CAN say at the moment is that I was impressed with what was being debated in those meetings. Certainly don't mean to tease here, I am just wanting to share with you that things are moving ahead.

ALL GO FAN CLUB PRESIDENT........

What does All Go plan for their Fan Club? Any exclusive buys like other clubs????? (we can hope so....)

I do enjoy all this new stuff coming out in our 1/18 scale hobbie.

Thanks for the update, TKO!
It's hard not to get excited about the prospects with AllGo on the horizon...
I know I speak for most here when I say we look forward to your postings!

TKO, a big thanks for any intel You can pass our way. I for one know You've never teased us in the past about anything 21st had in the works. This is like the old days!
The future looks good for All-GO 'cause the collectors never went away.................... ......................we just waited for their return.

Glad to hear that things are moving along nicely at All-Go. WE all await the Passion Wagon and future releases! Hope there is an armor piece or two in the plans .

This is a thread that I want to see explode with new information, and really soon.

your not kidding. any update to feed our cravings??? lie to me if ya have to just tell me something 1/18th

ok - so where I live we've set a record for consecutive days with snow on the ground (76 days and counting I believe) I REALLY REALLY need something to look forward to....please? New Accurate information for a intel starved 1:18 collector

It looks pretty darn good to me...

I think it does too. If I didn't have the Donald Duck one from BBI, I think I'd maybe look into this.

This plane looks awesome! It will go well with "The Temptation" Admiral Toys had planned for release, also a pin-up nose art aircraft. I think there needs to be more of this in the industry.

However, I have noticed one thing about this aircraft and that is the way they are marketing it. I am not sure if it is the nose art (which I know for a fact The Boeing Company has issues with naked ladies, ) or the attempt to shave some cost by not having to pay royalties, but All Go is not calling this model a P-51D or acknowledging North American aviation or Boeing on the box art or their pre-sales literature provided to the retailers for descriptive purposes. Admiral will have to do the same with "The Temptation." We spoke with Boeing several years ago about The Temptation and they were not going to allow this type of nose art, but Admiral did not care as well. Good job, All Go, for going out on a limb! Admiral has plans to do the same with their F-86... I mean "Korean Fighter"

I know I have complained about the price of this plane, but I will admit it looks really nice. I still cannot afford the $100 price tag if that sticks, but I hope it sells well enough to allow All-Go to release new planes in the future. Maybe something along the lines of a P-39 Airacobra perhaps? Now that would be awesome.

Wow, looks like they never did correct the deformed propeller molds either . Anybody rememeber those? Most of mine are slightly bent just like in badcat's picture.

Yes, the only model with a straight prop, for whatever reason, is the Tuskegee P-51.

My "Old Crow" blades are straight. My son's "Ridge Runner" blades are raked back.

I know for a fact The Boeing Company has issues with naked laddies,

Good, we don't need to see any naked men on the toys.

The props were straight on the three last general releases: "Old Crow," "BBD," and "Tuskeegee." I think "Tendor Terror" also had straight props, but that was not a general release. Bent props were on "Flying Undertaker," "Petie 2nd," and "Ridge Runner."

Too bad the props appear bent on the new model, but we could simply be seeing a prototype of sorts where they repainted a spare 21c P-51.

Not entirely true, at least in my case. I had 2 BBDs at one time and both had warped props, and my Old Crow's is warped. So I guess it's safe to say that it's a crap shoot and hopefully the All-Go P51 will have straight blades!

I still eagerly await the Temptation "Korean Fighter" as well!

The idea of a figure is novel and nice, though if that significantly would increase the price and delay the project, I would think many collectors would still just love the F-86 .... er I mean "Korean Figther" with nose art.
